Render individual tracks to stereo files

[djenzar]

It would bring a great improvement to have to ability to export each track in stereo.

What is the problem?

Individual tracks are exported in mono, by doing this it removes all the panning edits done to the samples/instruments of the track.

What do you want to achieve?

As it is done for the master track, during the render process, it would be really nice to have the possiblity to export each individual track of a project to stereo files. It could be a new option in the File/Export menu, for example Export Stereo Song Stems as there is already an empty slot there

Are there any workarounds?

It is possible to record each track one by one to preserve the stereo field, but it might be less practical.

Any links to related discussions?

Rendering individual tracks to stereo files?

Hi @Arek, do you know if there is any technical issue to rendering individual tracks to stereo files? I was considering opening a wish about it. As the tracker converts samples to mono, we can use effects to add some stereo back, but losing this at the rendering step is really annoying. Best

Hi @miropoly, I just checked and you are right! With v.1.6, individual tracks are exported stereo! This is great!

Then I think the description should be updated:

From this post:

Can Polyend Tracker export audio files?

You can render Song, Song stems, Pattern, Pattern stems directly to the SD memory card. While rendering stems, the Tracker exports 8 mono track files, 2 send Fx (Delay, Reverb) mono track,s and the master stereo mix track. The master audio output is rendered into a single stereo file. Rendered stems are PCM .wav audio files with a sampling rate of 44100Hz/16bit. The volume of separate rendered stems files can be set in the Master 2/3 section. The rendered master track volume is being set in the…

Shall I close this wish then?

@djenzar I will close the wish. @Arek can you update the post linked up please?
Thanks.

Ok, thank you @miropoly!
